Time Code Calculator. Subtract the actual time code of the clip from the time code you want or vice versa depending on which is greater then increment or decrement the source clip time code and you should be there. I find that quicker the cutting into a sequence and adding filler but perhaps I'm missing something obvious. This technique works well for modifying a new version of a feature that has differing time code from the offline feature captured. Of course that rarely happens in the DVD extra/feature world. Only about 75% of the time.
